Carrette Domaine is located in Vergisson, at the foot of "La Roche de Solutré", in a stunning stone-strewn vineyard landscape. The vineyards are spread over 13 hectares (32 acres), reaching out to five communes:
Vergisson, Solutré-Pouilly, Davayé, Chasselas and Berzé-la-Ville.
On about forty parcels of land unique Chardonnay grapes produce white wines that depending on soil and micro-climate conditions have varied characters. The different grapes are harvested and converted into wine separately so that terroir subtleties are expressed.
The wines are vinified with native yeasts, and careful monitoring during the alcoholic fermentation. The aging process lasts from 6 to 24 months depending on the cuvée.
Domaine currently converting to organic viticulture.
